PrintOregon St. Beavers at TCU Horned Frogs, Sep 4, 2010 4:45 PM PDT
Oregon State makes their 2010 debut today at Cowboys Stadium, where the No. 6 TCU Horned Frogs await.
Seasoned veteran Andy Dalton leads the Horned Frogs into their season opener, needing a win to jump start what Gary Patterson hopes will be another season that culminates in a BCS Bowl.
Oregon State, on the other hand, will start sophomore Ryan Katz. Katz has 27 career passes and 14 completions, but no meaningful playing time under his belt. He will be thrust into the spotlight today, as the Beavers will be competing under the national spotlight and on football's biggest stage.
This game is the homecoming of James and Jacquizz Rodgers, who grew up and were high school football stars in Richmond, Texas.
"Lots of our people, they bought tickets through TCU so all these people who think a bunch of TCU fans are coming, they're gonna be wearing orange and black instead," Tasha Williams (mother of James and Quizz) told the Oregonian's Lindsay Schnell last night.
The Rodgers Brothers and the rest of the Oregon State team would like nothing less than a win tonight to get their season started on the right note.
Kickoff is set for 4:45 Pacific on ESPN.

"Twin-headed infinite swirling vortex of grotesque suckitude known as Tony Clark and Eric Byrnes"
UCLA has lost
in typical fashion. By that, I mean they were in the game, and are clearly a dangerous team, but are dangerous to themselves as well. They offset great plays with mistakes.

Still, an FCS team beating a team who’se last game was winning the Cotton Bowl.

On the stats I show that Jordan Poyer threw the touchdown to Rodgers.

a lot of that
is just that the TCU defense is REALLY good, though it does seem like they’re focusing a bit on the run to force Katz to beat them (like he did for the 1st TD)

It feels like most of TCU's
yardage is from Dalton’s running. I wonder what the stats are.
30 yards rushing for Dalton......
out of 122 Total yards.

He’s been converting a lot of 3rd downs with his legs on broken plays.
But our D looks pretty solid.

Katz is looking solid, but we can’t ask him to shoulder the entire offensive load and hope to win.

it certainly seems that he can. Great game so far.

Katz has quite an arm
If we can keep him from throwing interceptions, he is looking very gooooood.

They probably got the worst Nike Pro Combat unis. The pants look like they were borrowed from an ice skating outfit or something.

yea, they're pretty nasty too
"...it was like he brought his own personal cross-wind to the arena." - Dave
He didn't know what the heck was going on
He was beat, but Dalton threw off his back foot and the ball was way underthrown. If he would have known where the ball was, that could of been he second interception of the night.
